Happy 50th blog post nice girls!  I cannot believe I am sitting here writing my 50th post.  In 2010 when I decided to start my blog I had no idea I would ever reach over 3,000 page views and fabulous readers like you.  My goal was to create a place where I could write about all things girly and answer any and all of your questions.  I believe I have achieved this goal with your help.  I continue to write not only because I love my blog but because of all the kind words and encouragement I receive from all of you.  Thank you for being so loyal and amazing. 

I have been working hard to update my blog the last few days and I am so excited about the new look.  Make sure you check out the About me, Ask, FAQ, Memory and the Spotlight tabs.  Hang in there with me while I continue to update the new tabs. Let me know what you think of my new look in the comments below. 

My new blog goal is to increase the number of followers from 19-30 by the end of 2011.  Will you help me achieve my new goal?  If you do not officially follow my blog please take a few seconds to become a follower.  I would greatly appreciate it.

I know you all love to send in blog request and you all know I take forever to get back to them.  But I promise I am catching up on them and will continue to respond to you.  If you have a blog request you can always leave them in the comments below however if you want to make sure I see and fully understand your request send an email to allamericannicegirl@yahoo.com Subject: blog request.

Blog Request: Great night out outfits, hair and makeup

Every nice girl needs a great night out outfit, fabulous hair and fierce makeup! However just because it is a date night there is no need to go overboard! Keep it simple and also dress for the occasion. There is no need to over think you attire because you have a date. These are my suggestions for fabulous date night.

Outfit: A sundress is perfect because they are light and cool, perfect for these hot days we have been having. Jean shorts or capri’s are also cute. Capri’s and a tank top or jean shorts and a t-shirt is usually what I do. If you are having a movie night, don’t be afraid to wear cute sweats. I will wear sweat pants (capris) from Victoria Secret and a tank top to a movie night to be comfortable.

Hair: Go Simple: High Pony Tail! These are a great way to look cute and stay cool. Don’t forget to add the poof in the back so your pony tail does not look like it is sucked to your head. The stuck to your head pony is only good for the treadmill. You can also wear your hair half up half down. This is an easy way to keep your hair out of your face but also have it down. Leaving your hair down and styling it curly or straight is also easy and fun. These are my favorite summer hair styles because they are simple and easy to do.

Makeup: I prefer to go easy on the makeup in the summer because it is so hot. But if you are going out somewhere at night a great smokey eye would be fabulous! If you are just looking to keep it simple hit the basics: foundation, mascara, blush and a lip gloss. I have only been wearing the basics during the day and then wearing a heavier eye at night.

To the requester: I hope this helps you. I have really been trying to keep my hair and makeup simple lately. It helps to decrease my getting ready time. Also, I’m sorry it has taken me so long to get to your request. Please feel free to request more blogs.


Thanks for reading everyone. And remember, nice girls always finish first.

Blog Request: Hair Care Routine

Hello again my fabulous readers!


I have been asked a few times to talk about my hair care routine. Like I have mentioned in numerous posts I use all Paul Mitchell products. I’ll give you the rundown of what I use. The order in which these are listed is the order I use the products.

Shampoo/Conditioner: I use the Awapuhi Wild Ginger line. These products are great because they are sulfate free. This shampoo and conditioner are great for hair extensions and colored hair.

Deep Conditioner: Super strong treatment. I use this about once a week. I will usually use it when I shave my legs because the best thing to do with this product is leave it in as long as you can and my showers are normally longer when I shave. On days when I use this treatment I will wash my hair first and leave the treatment on my hair until the second before I get out of the shower. This also comes in a liquid treatment as well. I love them both!!

Heat Protector: Seal and Shine. I spray this in my hair before I dry it. This is a great way to protect your hair from heat like your hair dryer and flat irons.

Fast Form: This product is great because it will help to reduce your drying time. I use this product as a hair gel.

Hair dryer: Paul Mitchell Pro Tools Express Ion dryer. I love this dryer!! It is light weight and has cut my drying time in half! Highly recommended!

Hot off the Press: This product helps boost your hair strength. It can be used for straightening or for curling your hair. This product is great because you can spray it on your hair before you curl it and it will help give the hair structure like a hair spray would. The catch is this product will NOT make your hair crunchy like a hair spray would. I’ve been using this product since it came out and I love it. Highly recommended.

Flat Iron: This is the only tool I use which is not a Paul Mitchell. I use a Remington. This is a great flat iron! I purchased it for $50.00 from Target and could not be happier. Earlier this spring my flat iron died on me after 4 year and I decided to repurchase the Remington. This is also another product I highly recommend.

I hope this was helpful information and I hope this is what you were looking for as far as my hair care routine. If not please comment below to give me a more specific idea of what you would like me to cover.

IMPORTANT: as far as I know I have one more blog request to write and this one is about my general daily routine. By mistake if I have missed your request please add a comment below with your request one more time. I keep a list but I could have missed it. I apologize in advance if I have missed your request. I will add it to my list and get to it as soon as possible. Thanks for understanding!

I hope you have a great weekend and I will talk to you in my next post. And remember, nice girls always finish first!
